GETTING MOODY!

                 GETTING MOODY!

    Our vacation trip to Maine found us stopping

at Moody's Motel/Cabins just south of Rockport

Monday might. Moody's is sort of a "Field of

Dreams story" without baseball. The family build

3 cabins just off US Route 1 in 1927. They had\

no heat and no running water and rented for a

dollar a night! 600 people took advantage of those

cabins that first year. So, the next year, a few more

cabins were added. Then a breakfast restaurant and

a fiid wagon to get travlers to stop. That's when the

State decided to move Route 1. Rather than give up

the owner, build an access road from the cabins to

the new highway and moved his restrauant operations

there. Now the place served about 1500 people a day!

The cabins, meanwhile, are still filled most every

night in season! If you're traveling along U.S. Route

1 south of Rockland, Maine you'll ant to eat at Moody's

and, if a stop is on your agenda, sign up for a night in

one of Moody's cabins! Hope you do and that all your

NEWS is good!
